Democrats get credit for money coming into the state, but I do a lot of heavy lifting.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think it's important Republicans be in the majority so, like my Democratic counterparts, I give to the party.
Not all Republicans are rich, dress in three-piece suits, and have $200 haircuts. I'm somebody who's lived from paycheck to paycheck. I'm focusing on my blue-collar roots - I've worked side by side with union people.
I'm not going to stop beating up on the Democrats for wasteful spending.
As a state senator and then a congressman, I've had the privilege of trying to do good things for people to whom I owe so much and can never fully repay.
I'm an independent, straight in the middle. I've donated to candidates that I thought would be good that are Republican and Democrats alike.
I am a Democrat. I have been one all of my life.
I'm not a Democrat, I'm an Independent, but I caucus with the Democrats.
I'm happy to work with Democrats. After all, they have to represent their districts just as I have to represent mine.
I've been a Democrat all my life.
So, you know, I think that Democrats are being more successful in Congress and I'm really going to be proud of the role I will play tomorrow as ranking Democrat on the Intelligence Committee when this bill passes.
